The multiplication facts can be daunting to memorize. Students may be confused by the sheer number of them and also worry about finally having them all learned. The nine times have a math trick, as we all know, which can be stated in a single sentence. Up to 9 times 9, one less than the multiplier added to make nine is the answer. Children are able to list out the facts when shown this method. However, further practice is needed by many children to gain automaticity. Repetition is the key to learning! Below are the steps in the free 17 page PDF download in our free eMember area.
